One of the final Flecktones shows of 1997 as BΓ©la would instead tour with Edgar Meyer and Mike Marshall in fall supporting the Uncommon Ritual album.
Awesome! Thatβs what we are here for!

Let us know if you have any setlist details or other artifacts/recordings from the show!
Here are stats from their only tour in 2005: archivesincowtown.org/allyrsongs.p...
During the last half of the trio era ('95 and '96) they had people rotating in and out of the 4th spot. Paul was the most frequent, guesting on over 120 shows during that time. Sam Bush was second most with close to 90 shows.
Jeff secured the spot almost exclusively in '97 (save 5 shows in April).
A previously uncirculated Flecktones recording from 1996 was just added to archive.org allowing us to fill in a missing 29 year old set from the trio era with guest Mike Marshall!
Check out the setlist here: archivesincowtown.org/showinfo.php...

One more birthday we cannot miss. Victor Lamont Wooten, wizard of the bass, and founding member of both The Wooten Brothers (naturally!) and Bela Fleck & The Flecktones. Victor turns 61 today.
Happy Birthday Vic!
